Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a digital comic editor, method, and non-transitory computer-readable medium that can appropriately edit the master data of a digital comic. The master data includes an image file of each page of the comic and an information file having described therein frame information including frame region information of each frame within the page. The position of the frame boundary which segments the frames within the page can be corrected in accordance with the screen size of a predetermined mobile terminal, ensuring efficient viewing of the image on the mobile terminal. The digital comic editor also includes a third display control device configured to display the frame order representing the read order of the frames based on a piece of frame information. The frame order can be corrected if the frame order information is not proper. The master data can be created efficiently by automatically creating the file. Overall, the invention provides a convenient and efficient tool for editing and viewing digital comics.

Problems solved by technology

However, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-129068 does not describe manual editing assistance or the editing for efficiently viewing the comic content on a mobile terminal having a specific screen size.

Abstract

The digital comic editor edits a piece of master data of a digital comic suitably for efficiently viewing a digital comic which has an image size larger than a screen size of a predetermined mobile terminal. The digital comic editor enables the master data of the digital comic to be appropriately edited. The master data includes a piece of image file having high resolution image of the entire page of the comic and an information file having described therein a piece of frame information including a piece of frame region information of the frame within the page. Particularly, the digital comic editor displays a frame boundary while superimposing the frame boundary on the image based on the frame region information included in the information file and displays a border F corresponding to the screen size of the predetermined mobile terminal on the image. The digital comic editor allows an editor to virtually drag and shift the position of the displayed frame boundary while referring to the border F; thereby the frame region information can be corrected to match with the screen size of the mobile terminal.
